Nuclear war 'imminent'...

[warsaw]

It is in Putin's interest to stoke up up the nationalist rhetoric to sure up his own position. No free press there so Putin can say and do pretty much as he wishes. His people are being fed a completely different version of what is happening in Syria, while the West seems to be letting him get on with it. In the meantime it seems that Russian spending on the military is rising.

So yes I'm am a bit worried

Precisely. Sting does a masterpiece during the Cold War and no international incidents. Robbie Williams on the other hand releases his take on Russia and before its even charted we're on the verge of the Apocolypse. Another reason to dislike the annoying chorister from Stoke. "Robbie provokes nuclear war" is tomorrow headline folks. Read it here first!

If there's a 3 minute warning, do you think some people will leave early?

Will need to get my tin hat out

I am at the dentist at 2pm tomorrow so if they could leave it until about 2.30 it means I can get a tooth repaired without all that awful noise and bashing about...

Thanks Vlad (the Incisor)

Is that a Russian sub commander I hear?

And we're still supposed to have a world cup there in 2 years.

FFS cancel it already.




and no, I'm not suggesting Murray cancels it.

I think if there's a nuclear war it will sort of cancel itself.

But can we not cancel it even on the off chance that there isn't a nuclear war?

No such thing as the 3 minute warning...all the air raid sirens were decommissioned a while ago

Don't know about you, but if it really did ever come to it, I'd rather be near the epicentre of one of the strikes and get obliterated instantly, rather than survive and suffer through fallout, radiation poising, breakdown in society etc.

Thankfully, I feel Ivan can rattle his saber as loudly as he likes, he wouldn't actually press the button. There is no way to win that battle for any side involved. If there was, it would have happened in the 70s/80s.

It will be announced on Social Media no doubt.

Yeah, but we wouldn't believe it, and 3 minutes isn't quite long enough for a full debate and conclusion.

Not to mention 3 minutes is not enough time for rich oligarchs and the establishment to sell their assets.

Packing you bags and leaving when all the rich Russians suddenly leave London would buy you a bit more time.

While our press are feeding us their own version of what's happening in Syria and taking every opportunity to stoke up Russophobia.

Russia's military spending has risen in tandem with a huge build up of foreign military forces - led by the USA - along it's western border.

Well that will sort Brexit then

No, and quite the opposite - Vlad sells them his assets before the war.
